Building balanced meals: PCC vs PFF

In the But First, Pivot podcast, we talk a lot about PCC (Protein–Color–Carb) and PFF (Protein–Fiber–Fat) — two simple frameworks we use to teach clients and athletes how to build balanced, satisfying meals without tracking.

In this episode, Dani and Sam break down what these frameworks are, how they’re similar, how they’re different, and when to use each one. You’ll learn:

• Why both PCC and PFF work
• Which one is easiest to start with
• Downfalls of PCC and PFF
• How to level up from PCC to PFF
• Breakfast, lunch, and dinner examples for each
• How these concepts help with energy, fullness, cravings, and performance
